Then, just as I pulled into the driveway Roger&#8217;s favorite song (the Ghostbusters Theme) came on the radio and that was it. I&#8217;m curled up on the couch crying my little heart out. A few days of the year I feel like the most awful parent ever and this is one of them. I should be in Michigan, attending their class parties, making them dinner, taking them trick or treating.. but I&#8217;m not. I&#8217;m in New York, 8 hours away. I would give anything to have spent today with them, but I just couldn&#8217;t afford to drive there. I miss them so much and it kills me to miss out on parts of their lives. Peter won&#8217;t take pictures of them in their costumes and he won&#8217;t have gone to their parties. I guess that&#8217;s what momma&#8217;s are for except I&#8217;m not there.  <\/p>\n<p>To those of you who got to decorate cupcakes or help your babies into their costumes, please know just how blessed you are. I would give anything just to have those simple moments back again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/s227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/?action=view%C2%A4t=Name2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/Name2.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Photobucket\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I did so well holding it together today.
